Capable of shooting .177-caliber pellets at 1,000 fps, this sporting air rifle is a good choice for
everything from target shooting to hunting small game. It comes with a 3-9x32mm variable scope and
mount. The fine hardwood stock is Monte Carlo-style and equipped with a contoured rubber butt pad.
A muzzle brake is fitted to the rifled barrel. Automatic safety. Cocking effort is 35 lbs. Overall length: Approximately 48" Weight: 8.4 lbs.
I bought this combo and on the first day, as I was sighting it in a chunk of glass fell off of the lens internal to the scope after about two dozen shots. It's amazing to me that they used a lens so cheap that it could not withstand the recoil of a .177" pellet firing. Towards the end, before it broke I was firing three shot groups and they were not very tight.
The thing is really heavy.
I returned it. The gophers in my yard are the only ones happy with this purchase...
I bought the air rifle at a local cabelas and went home and shot it and it did well for maybe the first 20 shots. Then the next day i took it out to shoot (it was shootong perfect at 30 yards the first day) next day i came out and it was shooting 5 inches low and the shots were getting lower each shot DO NOT GET IT IF YOU WANT A GOOD AIR RIFLE!
This gun is nice for the money. It looks great out of the box. It is very hard to break the barrel to cock it. I sited it in easily, and it is very accurate at 40 yards. It Took approximately 75-100 pellets. Both the elevation and the windage adjustments on the scope are at there limits in movement/adjustment, but the gun is "right on" now with a pattern the size of a quarter at 40 yards. Instruction Manual could be a little more descriptive, and instructions for scope mounting not very informative. It was easy for me as I mounted many scopes throughout the years. Cannot bore sight the scope as there is a muzzle break on this gun, I am not sure why Beeman put this on this gun other than for a meaner look. There are no gases really that need to escape, so I do not see the need. One thing I noticed though that is a great disappointment, is that I bought Gamo .177 PBA pellets, and Gamo .177, 7.9 gr. led pellets, and neither would fit in the barrel. I had a box of Crosman Copperhead .177, 7.9 gr. pellets from an older air rifle, that I shot through this gun. Not sure what the deal is, but I will not force any ammo into a barrel. I plan to return this rifle to Cabelas, and purchase a Gamo. I selected that I recommend this gun to a friend, only if they have some knowledge of guns, have a little patience, and have the strength to cock it.
I dont understand why some had trouble with this rifle and scope. I dialed this scope in with just a few shots and found mounting to be no problem at all. The rifle is a little heavy but makes it great for balance and durability. I think this rifle is a steal for the money. I have a couple more expensive air rifles that are no better than this one.
